This is for a historical antique English rolling parallel rule for  navigation plotting and calculation. The case contains a paper label with the name of the owner and "Room Annex D, Admiralty". The hardwood case with dovetailed corners and brass fittings is 19.25"L x 3.5"W x 2"D.. The rule is 18.25" long and 2.5" wide. . The brass rule is engraved with the name H.W. Kenrick as well as "Capt Field's Improved"  and in very small font "Army & Navy C.S.L.". Commander R.N.R.,  H.W. Kenrick was listed on the Admiralty War Staff 1914-1918 as a TD Officer. His role was in Sec. T.4 involving the British Merchant Marine incl. casualties, mines.The condition of the rule is very good. It has not been cleaned and is as found. The dovetailed case needs minor realignment of the cover to better engage the left clasp. There is the loss of some green felt on the floor of the box. Overall good to very good condition. A very nice parallel rule with World War 1 provenance. See images for condition. Questions are welcome.
